What exactly is the problem?  This works for me:

    $ cat `mhpath +drafts 29`
    From: A. User <auser(_at_)example(_dot_)com>
    Subject: test

    The From: contains an invalid unquoted display name.

    stl:nmh$ repl -query +drafts 29
    Reply to "A. User" <auser(_at_)example(_dot_)com>? y

Where "works" means that the invalid quoted display name gets quoted
by repl, both as shown above in the prompt and in the draft itself.

Remove the space between "A." and "User" and you'll get different 
behavior.

  - There will be no "To:" line in the reply draft.
  - The new reply draft will include:

repl: bad addresses:
        A.User <auser(_at_)example(_dot_)com> -- no at-sign after local-part 
(<)

Does that help to define the problem?

It sure does, thanks.

Now, who wants to fix it?  I don't have time.

David
